Why do people comment on your expensive clothing when you're panhandling ?

What does a three hundred dollar Patagonia jacket your parents bought for you ten years ago that you wear in the winter time because it's the only jacket you have, have to do with how much money you have now? Ten years is a long time financial situations could very possibly change quit a bit in that amount of time, you might still wear it because it's the only jacket you have, but you still might be hungry, people in Chicago are so ignorant

    My advice is to sell the jacket to a pawn shop and  replace it with one  from Goodwill or the Salvation Army.

    Why do idiot trolls ask such OFF topic things in TRAVEL ?

    It's not the "label" they are commenting on... it's the condition.

    A 10 year old Patagonia jacket only stays in nice condition if it has a nice home with laundry service to stay in.

    It's the keys to the BMW parked around the corner hanging out of the jacket pocket which really annoys them.

    You need to ask the people that ask you that when are panhandling.

    Because you could sell the jacket, buy a cheaper one and have extra $
